Jail For Md. Woman Who Drunkenly Smothered Baby

A Hagerstown woman who killed her 2-month-old daughter by passing out drunk on top of her while breast-feeding is going to jail.

Yadina Morales, 22, was sentenced Tuesday to 15 months in the Washington County jail after entering an Alford plea to involuntary manslaughter. An Alford plea is not an admission of guilt but an acknowledgement that the state has enough evidence to convict.

Prosecutors agreed to drop charges including child abuse and reckless endangerment as part of the plea deal.

Part of that Plea Agreement should have stated that this woman NEVER be ALLOWED to CONCEIVE AGAIN!!!!! Her Ex boyfriend was already in jail for child abuse of the oldest child. Now they go off and get sooo drunk they don't have a clue! THere should be a test that you must pass before being allowed to become a parent!
